Love Forgot - Lyrics by Luther Vandross


Lyrics
Learn to love and you learn to survive

My mistake was thinking love wouldn't catch me

It was the story of my life
I awakened seeing with new eyes
I begged forgiveness, but love wouldn't hear me

Taught you to fear me, baby


Love forgot we used to be just fine

And love forgot about the tender times

Love forgot to ask you if you'd want to give me

Give me one more try

Maybe love forgot this time


Love can't love someone who breaks a vow

But I was not myself, my heart wasn't in it
I still loved you every minute
I could fix it if you show me how

You didn't hear it from somebody else, I told you

Praying you'd let me hold you
(I can't believe) Love forgot the power to forgive(
Impossible) And love forgot that we depend on it(
It couldn't be) Love forgot that it's the only way

Our poetry will ever rhyme
I think love forgot this time


But who would have ever known
I'd ever be tempted, but I'm hopin'

Love will show me what to do

Cuz if it was all so easy

Then anybody else coulda shown me
I don't understand how you wouldn't know
I never even meant it
(I can't believe) Did love forget this was the only time(
Impossible) Did love forget I tried to set things right(
It couldn't be) Did love forget to remember

That regret lives in this heart of mine

Maybe love forgot this time
(I can't believe) Love forgot the power to forgive(
Impossible) And love forgot that we depend on it(
It couldn't be) Love forgot that it's the only way

That poetry will ever rhyme

Maybe love forgot this time


Did you forget this time

Did you forget this time

Don't forget me now

Don't forget me now

Did you forget somehow

Did you forget somehow
